Happy Current Student's Review

Review of Marietta College

Do you feel you’re learning a lot?

My biggest class this past semester was 16 students. I do not have the option of fading into the wallpaper of the classroom, I am expected to be prepared every day, and if I am not, my professors know it. Being in such small classes has challenged me to be on top of my game every day and has put pressure on me to succeed and stand out even more.

Do you enjoy the experience at your school?

There are smiles all around on this campus. There is always something to do here, and one my biggest problems is that I don't have the time to do everything that I want to do outside of class. This is a good problem to have. Greek life is excellent and volunteerism is a big part of our campus.

Do you feel you’re getting value for the money you’re spending on college?

Although expensive, Almost everyone I know is receiving financial aid. Despite the cost, you really do get what you pay for in this world. College is really less about being in the classroom as it is about the experience. Never again will you be young and able to get this kind of experience. This is worth all the money in the world to me.

Do you have any tips for prospective students?

Get involved early, stay on campus as much as possible, if you are in a relationship don't let it prevent you from branching out and meeting a lot of really awesome people, go through recruitment and see if greek life is for you, look into the honors and leadership programs, and most importantly, keep an open mind throughout your college experience.
